Children’s artwork will be on the front of police Christmas cards

Budding young artists could see their festive work on the front of a West Yorkshire Police Christmas card.

The force has launched a competition for children aged 12 and under to hand draw the design for the card.

The theme is ‘staying safe at Christmas’.

As well as seeing their creation printed, the winner will also get to tour the police’s Carr Gate complex including seeing the National Police Air Service helicopter, the horses in the Mounted Section and the firearms and public order training areas.

Entries can be submitted via Facebook, Twitter, an online form on the force’s website or by post.

All entries will be published in a photo albumn on the West Yorkshire Police Facebook page on November 20.

The winner will be the design with the most ‘likes’ by November 25 and will be announced on November 27.
